Resident Evil 5 Go Nintendo got the exclusive:
Resident Evil Wii is finally confirmed. It’s called Umbrella Chronicles and it’s a game that ties up all loose ends throughout the series. Similar to Outbreak, it’s split up in different chapters; you will be able to play as the main Resident Evil protagonists from the main series[From RE Veronica to RE4, prologue to RE5], as well as unlock additional characters. Gameplay will be in 3rd person similar to RE4, but additionally the game takes advantage of the controller’s core features. -Puzzles and shooting will have a new twist to it. New details are to be shown at TGS. Also, previous rumors was made official. Four chapters will be available, each chapter will have 2 playable characters Chapter 1 - BH1 Mansion - Jill and Chris Chapter 2 - BH2 RPD - Claire and Leon Chapter 3 - BH3 Racoon City - Jill and Carlos Chapter 4 - BH4 Village - Leon and Ada Additional characters can be unlocked by playing the game, such as Rebecca Chambers, Hunk and Albert Wesker The gameplay will be similar to BH4, use the Wiimote to trigger the over-the-shoulder view, use the nunchuk to fire All characters will have different weapons and melee attacks like in BH4, you can find additional weapons in the stage Each character can only carry 2 weapons, such as Chris' pistol and shotgun, and Jill's pistol and grenade launcher The main game Scenario Mode will have in-game cutscenes, each chapter will have new contents which link to Umbrella's status There is an Arcade Mode which plays like the BH4 Mercenaries mini game
It'll be interesting to replay all the Resident Evils with the Wii-mote. I'm truly excited to see how this will turn out. It does feel like Capcom is screwing Nintendo over in way. All of the REs (the important ones) were rereleased to the GameCube already. Now they're just combining them all? I understand that there are going to be new missions and new scenarios, but still. It feels like Capcom is taking the easy way out for the Big N. I'm the biggest Resident Evil fanboy you'll every meet, so you can only imagine the orgasmo of joy I felt hearing this news regardless of my above statement. :) (Note: The image has nothing to do with Resident Wiivil, but is an image for the PS3s RE 5. Same thing...almost)
